Veelgemaakte fout:
Learners often confuse "diploma" with "degree." A *degree* (like a bachelor's or master's) is a level of university qualification, while a *diploma* is the physical certificate or, in some regions, a specific type of qualification that is usually below the level of a degree. Learners also sometimes treat "diploma" as uncountable (e.g., *I have diploma*); it is countable, so you should say *I have a diploma* or *I have two diplomas*.
